I mean, it's unbelievable, all right. 225 00:12:20,840 --> 00:12:24,960 Speaker 4: So my first reaction, literally when I heard Ronaldi's voice, 226 00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:28,840 Speaker 4: immediate goosebumps before the stage, Just like that, they just 227 00:12:28,880 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 4: appeared on my arms with a sound that sumps's. 228 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:34,480 Speaker 2: That's what happens when you get goosebumps. 229 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 4: Yet and then they immediately just hid under my skin. 230 00:12:38,280 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 5: I don't know what that means. 231 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 4: Once he said that's Augusta, because it wasn't even a 232 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 4: Ronaldi thing. It was this member is a little full 233 00:12:48,440 --> 00:12:51,840 Speaker 4: of himself. And the course, okay, like the man lost 234 00:12:51,840 --> 00:12:54,360 Speaker 4: a child, I'm pretty sure he would have been emotional, 235 00:12:54,400 --> 00:12:57,360 Speaker 4: and regardless of the setting, this just happens to be 236 00:12:57,400 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 4: a very pretty one in which he gets to play golf. 237 00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 1: It's the powers of Augusta. Are you listening to Tom's like. 238 00:13:03,240 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 2: The warners of Lake Minnetonka, Augusta. 239 00:13:06,600 --> 00:13:08,760 Speaker 8: That's Augusta, thank you. 240 00:13:08,840 --> 00:13:11,800 Speaker 4: And then what brought out the tears was when I 241 00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 4: was crying laughing at your. 242 00:13:14,520 --> 00:13:17,640 Speaker 2: Reactions while I was crying, Well, if. 243 00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,240 Speaker 4: You would have just cut out everything else and just 244 00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 4: put Stu Gotts's noises in there, they're the number of 245 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:26,240 Speaker 4: things you could have been doing, and it's not always 246 00:13:26,280 --> 00:13:29,839 Speaker 4: listening to Tom Ronaldy talk about golf in Magnolia Lane. 247 00:13:30,920 --> 00:13:31,719 Speaker 2: So I got ab in. 248 00:13:32,040 --> 00:13:32,240 Speaker 11: Oh. 249 00:13:33,559 --> 00:13:35,720 Speaker 4: My answer is I felt all the things except for 250 00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:38,160 Speaker 4: the item Giva believe I did not feel that whatsoever. 251 00:13:38,240 --> 00:13:41,080 Speaker 2: But you felt the full range of emotion there, including laughter. 252 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:45,280 Speaker 4: Well done, well worth the six minutes I have, go ahead, Taylor. 253 00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 6: Some people might say that the only thing they felt 254 00:13:48,160 --> 00:13:49,679 Speaker 6: was that six and a half minutes probably could have 255 00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:50,800 Speaker 6: been two and a half minutes. 256 00:13:50,600 --> 00:13:52,800 Speaker 1: But it could have been not me, and again not me. 257 00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:56,920 Speaker 1: I don't think it. It's a dangerous game. It's Tom Rinaldi. Okay, 258 00:13:56,960 --> 00:14:01,600 Speaker 1: he's a legend.

Bamani, are you a bench below the 353 00:18:29,240 --> 00:18:32,760 Speaker 1: court or a bench at court level type of guy, like, 354 00:18:32,800 --> 00:18:33,800 Speaker 1: which way do you like it? 355 00:18:34,600 --> 00:18:34,760 Speaker 10: Oh? 356 00:18:34,800 --> 00:18:36,000 Speaker 7: I hate the elevated court. 357 00:18:36,840 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 2: I can't stand it. 358 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 13: I can't stand it. I can't stand it. It makes 359 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 13: everything look. 360 00:18:40,320 --> 00:18:42,200 Speaker 7: Ridiculous, Like who asks for this? 361 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:43,720 Speaker 2: I don't like. 362 00:18:43,800 --> 00:18:45,879 Speaker 13: I think no one's made a compelling case for me 363 00:18:46,040 --> 00:18:49,680 Speaker 13: for the elevated court. I'm also just generally an opponent 364 00:18:49,760 --> 00:18:52,600 Speaker 13: of basketball in domes. But I understand the capitalism is 365 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:55,040 Speaker 13: going to win on that one. But the elevated court. 366 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 7: I don't. I don't like you. 367 00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:58,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm with you. I feel like someone's gonna get hurt. 368 00:18:58,240 --> 00:18:59,760 Speaker 2: It's dangerous, you know, Yes. 369 00:18:59,760 --> 00:19:02,320 Speaker 13: Yeah, And that's what they don't get is that just 370 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,720 Speaker 13: because you say nobody's going to get hurt doesn't change 371 00:19:04,720 --> 00:19:06,719 Speaker 13: the fact that it feels that way, and that is 372 00:19:06,720 --> 00:19:08,600 Speaker 13: not a comfortable viewing experience. 373 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:11,639 Speaker 1: Yes, if you put a future prop be in on 374 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,400 Speaker 1: Mike Malone being the next head coach at North Carolina 375 00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:16,679 Speaker 1: at a billion to one, congratulations to you. 376 00:19:16,880 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 13: I don't understand. It's not even that I don't understand it. 377 00:19:23,280 --> 00:19:27,240 Speaker 13: Let's put a pin in the understanding part. My question 378 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:32,680 Speaker 13: was simply, whose idea this was because you like, when 379 00:19:32,760 --> 00:19:39,880 Speaker 13: you have an idea that nobody else has, chances are 380 00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:42,479 Speaker 13: it's either the best idea or the worst idea that 381 00:19:42,520 --> 00:19:46,520 Speaker 13: you've ever had when you're the only person who cooked 382 00:19:46,560 --> 00:19:50,120 Speaker 13: this up. And I feel like whoever cooked this idea 383 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:56,760 Speaker 13: up was the only person who had this idea, right But. 384 00:19:56,800 --> 00:19:59,919 Speaker 7: I can't say that it's a bad idea. 385 00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 13: I just never would have thought of that, right Yeah, 386 00:20:04,680 --> 00:20:08,359 Speaker 13: So you know, I like if I see the people 387 00:20:08,359 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 13: who are down on the higher but I don't think 388 00:20:10,600 --> 00:20:12,800 Speaker 13: they have a compelling argument for being so down on 389 00:20:12,880 --> 00:20:16,080 Speaker 13: it other than I didn't. I never would have thought 390 00:20:16,080 --> 00:20:19,280 Speaker 13: of this right now. If the argument is, well, he's 391 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 13: an NBA coach, and how well can an NBA coach 392 00:20:21,400 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 13: do in college? Okay, maybe that's fair, but we're taking 393 00:20:25,440 --> 00:20:29,240 Speaker 13: a guy that I believe was an excellent NBA coach 394 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 13: and his biggest problem as an NBA coach is he 395 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:35,960 Speaker 13: rode dudes a little bit too hard, which is something 396 00:20:36,040 --> 00:20:38,760 Speaker 13: that you typically can get away with in college. And 397 00:20:38,840 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 13: you can, on one hand make the argument that well, 398 00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:44,199 Speaker 13: with the transfer portal, you can only do this with 399 00:20:44,280 --> 00:20:46,800 Speaker 13: so much. But the counterpoint is Mike Malowe's the guy 400 00:20:47,040 --> 00:20:50,159 Speaker 13: that had the great relationship with DeMarcus Cousins at a 401 00:20:50,200 --> 00:20:52,680 Speaker 13: time where no coach could figure out how to make 402 00:20:52,720 --> 00:20:55,800 Speaker 13: that worker. He seemed to be completely incorrigible. So there's 403 00:20:55,840 --> 00:20:58,399 Speaker 13: a world in which this works out very well. I 404 00:20:58,440 --> 00:21:01,600 Speaker 13: don't know who staff is going to be. I do 405 00:21:01,720 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 13: know that the head coach of NCAA basketball program doesn't 406 00:21:04,400 --> 00:21:05,520 Speaker 13: have to recruit anymore. 407 00:21:05,520 --> 00:21:08,840 Speaker 2: Like that part doesn't really matter. So if you're. 408 00:21:08,720 --> 00:21:12,080 Speaker 13: Asking me, can somebody go get five, seven, eight guys 409 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,080 Speaker 13: and give him to Mike Malone and can Mike Malone 410 00:21:14,080 --> 00:21:15,320 Speaker 13: make a good basketball team? 411 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:16,880 Speaker 2: I'm going to assume that he can. 412 00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,240 Speaker 6: Yes, Bo Money, What would you say to the people 413 00:21:20,320 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 6: who are saying that everything that is a pro for 414 00:21:23,320 --> 00:21:27,320 Speaker 6: Mike Malone Michael Malone, Sorry, they were also saying those 415 00:21:27,359 --> 00:21:28,679 Speaker 6: pros for Bill Belichick. 416 00:21:29,119 --> 00:21:32,160 Speaker 1: Taylor's one of those guys, So just say, you know, yeah, 417 00:21:32,200 --> 00:21:33,640 Speaker 1: this is a here's a major difference. 418 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:33,920 Speaker 7: Though. 419 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,119 Speaker 13: The last team I saw Michael Malone coach was good. 420 00:21:38,320 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 7: Yeah in the NBA. 421 00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:39,800 Speaker 10: Yea. 422 00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:42,440 Speaker 13: The last team I saw Bill Belichick coach in the 423 00:21:42,560 --> 00:21:46,840 Speaker 13: NFL was terrible. Like the problems with Bill Belichick seem 424 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,320 Speaker 13: to be very clearly Bill Belichick problems, Like, I don't 425 00:21:49,320 --> 00:21:52,280 Speaker 13: think it's fair to extrapolate too much there. Also, Michael 426 00:21:52,320 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 13: Malone is twenty years younger than him. I don't think 427 00:21:55,720 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 13: that part is a small detail in. 428 00:21:58,440 --> 00:21:59,000 Speaker 2: The course of this. 429 00:21:59,240 --> 00:22:01,639 Speaker 13: And Belichick's had this problem with the Patriots and he 430 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:06,640 Speaker 13: seemed to continue this problem with the with UNC which. 431 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:08,399 Speaker 7: Is, why do you keep getting these guys. 432 00:22:08,160 --> 00:22:09,040 Speaker 2: Nobody else wants? 433 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:11,600 Speaker 13: Right, Like why do you think that you can make 434 00:22:11,600 --> 00:22:13,760 Speaker 13: an acc team out of players from the MAC? I 435 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 13: don't understand, Like, like, why are you doing that? He 436 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:18,920 Speaker 13: was Basically he had a bit of a track record 437 00:22:18,960 --> 00:22:21,359 Speaker 13: for doing the same thing with the Patriots also, But 438 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,320 Speaker 13: I have no reason to think that Mike Malone Mike Malone, 439 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 13: Michael Malone is not is no longer the coach at 440 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,480 Speaker 13: the of the different Nuggets, but not because he got 441 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:33,440 Speaker 13: bad at his job. Right, That to me is the 442 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:35,560 Speaker 13: biggest difference between the two of those games. Like, I 443 00:22:35,640 --> 00:22:37,600 Speaker 13: think that's a I understand why people say that, but 444 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,000 Speaker 13: I think that's a lazy argument. Like if some other 445 00:22:40,080 --> 00:22:44,200 Speaker 13: school had hired Michael Malone, the response would not be, well, 446 00:22:44,200 --> 00:22:46,119 Speaker 13: look at what happened with Bill Belichick, you know. 447 00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 7: What I mean? 448 00:22:46,960 --> 00:22:47,439 Speaker 2: Like they're not. 449 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 13: The only thing they have in common really is that 450 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:50,480 Speaker 13: they're both there North Carolina. 451 00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:53,840 Speaker 2: Yes, uh, you know this program. 452 00:22:53,880 --> 00:22:57,439 Speaker 1: There is not a person I know that knows North Carolina, 453 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:01,320 Speaker 1: the basketball program, the history of the program, what it 454 00:23:01,400 --> 00:23:05,280 Speaker 1: means to the people in Chapel Hill better than you, Bamani. 455 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:06,840 Speaker 2: So I think what's going on here. 456 00:23:06,920 --> 00:23:09,480 Speaker 1: This is just so jarring because for the first time, 457 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:13,240 Speaker 1: Carolina went outside the family, and that's not something people 458 00:23:13,280 --> 00:23:14,720 Speaker 1: are accustomed to in Chapel Hill. 459 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 13: I mean, guys, it's the first coaching search that they've 460 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:20,560 Speaker 13: had in seventy years. 461 00:23:22,760 --> 00:23:23,520 Speaker 2: Michael Legitimate. 462 00:23:23,560 --> 00:23:25,040 Speaker 13: I guess you could make an argument that when they 463 00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,159 Speaker 13: hired Dean Smith in nineteen sixty one that there was 464 00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:29,000 Speaker 13: some measure of search, but even that, as I recall, 465 00:23:29,080 --> 00:23:30,000 Speaker 13: was an internal hire. 466 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 7: Yes, they haven't had. 467 00:23:32,359 --> 00:23:35,280 Speaker 13: A coaching search in seventy something years. There was literally 468 00:23:35,359 --> 00:23:39,600 Speaker 13: no telling who would wind up getting this job because 469 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:43,760 Speaker 13: there seem to be no candidates available from as they 470 00:23:43,960 --> 00:23:46,159 Speaker 13: like to say it, within the family. I mean, the 471 00:23:46,200 --> 00:23:48,920 Speaker 13: most qualified person to hire from within the family was 472 00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:52,000 Speaker 13: Hubert Davis. Yes, he's been to a Final Four, he's 473 00:23:52,040 --> 00:23:54,440 Speaker 13: been to Sweet sixteen, he's done not a terrible job 474 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,760 Speaker 13: at recruiting, like he was the guy that had the 475 00:23:56,760 --> 00:23:59,760 Speaker 13: best resume for they set Wes Miller out hoping one 476 00:23:59,800 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 13: day and maybe he'd be the guy. Nope, he got 477 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:06,320 Speaker 13: fired at Cincinnati. There was nowhere else to go. So 478 00:24:06,400 --> 00:24:08,040 Speaker 13: then once that happened, it was like, Oh, it could 479 00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:11,600 Speaker 13: be anybody. I thought it would wind up being Billy Donovan's. 480 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,399 Speaker 13: I understand the argument that if you feel like you 481 00:24:14,440 --> 00:24:16,760 Speaker 13: can't wait for Billy Donovant, I think what seems to 482 00:24:16,800 --> 00:24:20,480 Speaker 13: be more likely is that Billy Donovant has outlasted everybody 483 00:24:20,520 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 13: else in Chicago and he will get kicked upstairs, and 484 00:24:23,000 --> 00:24:26,320 Speaker 13: he would rather do that job than to coach college basketball, 485 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:30,359 Speaker 13: Which I mean, I could totally get this. The other 486 00:24:30,520 --> 00:24:32,679 Speaker 13: names that you would think of going to get, you 487 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:34,600 Speaker 13: could get guys that would be okay, but it was 488 00:24:34,640 --> 00:24:36,879 Speaker 13: going to be nobody that would really excite you. 489 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 7: But the truth is, if this job is. 490 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:42,000 Speaker 13: What I think it is, and I think what I 491 00:24:42,359 --> 00:24:44,919 Speaker 13: would turn of, most reasonable people believe that it is. 492 00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:47,280 Speaker 13: You don't need a great coach to do a very 493 00:24:47,280 --> 00:24:49,359 Speaker 13: good job at this school. 494 00:24:49,480 --> 00:24:52,199 Speaker 1: Yes, what do you believe, Yeah, you don't know, But 495 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 1: what do you believe? This job to be you still 496 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: believe it to be one of the premier jobs. 497 00:24:55,680 --> 00:25:01,480 Speaker 13: Right I if they can get them money right and 498 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:05,359 Speaker 13: get some alignment going with the people who make decisions. 499 00:25:05,359 --> 00:25:07,160 Speaker 13: And I'm not nearly as tapped in on these things 500 00:25:07,160 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 13: as I once was, but neither of those things seems. 501 00:25:09,400 --> 00:25:10,800 Speaker 7: To truly be the case. Right. 502 00:25:10,880 --> 00:25:14,320 Speaker 13: Yes, but if they can get that right, it's still 503 00:25:14,400 --> 00:25:18,840 Speaker 13: North Carolina, right they still have the institutional commitment to 504 00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:21,800 Speaker 13: being good at basketball. I don't know how much of 505 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:24,120 Speaker 13: the stuff that used to matter in terms of recruiting 506 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:28,040 Speaker 13: continues to matter now, But I don't think you have 507 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:30,960 Speaker 13: a compelling argument for there somehow being jobs that are 508 00:25:30,960 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 13: better than this one to have, unless somebody's trying to 509 00:25:32,840 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 13: make the point now that all the jobs are the same, 510 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:38,760 Speaker 13: which I'm not far enough down the road yet. To 511 00:25:38,800 --> 00:25:40,360 Speaker 13: get to that place is to get to the place 512 00:25:40,400 --> 00:25:42,720 Speaker 13: of saying that I know that in my life and 513 00:25:42,920 --> 00:25:44,919 Speaker 13: nil and all this has changed everything, but I know 514 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:47,280 Speaker 13: that in my life anytime there's been these big time programs, 515 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:49,840 Speaker 13: whether it be a football or basketball, with the exception 516 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:53,000 Speaker 13: of Indiana basketball, and they start telling you, oh. 517 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,680 Speaker 14: Man, it's not like it used to be. Oh Man, 518 00:25:54,880 --> 00:25:57,520 Speaker 14: Oklahoma's not a big deal anymore like that. Oh man, 519 00:25:57,680 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 14: usc doesn't matter like that, Hey, Iole State, you really 520 00:26:01,119 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 14: think it's gonna be the No, they all been, They 521 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 14: all been the same. 522 00:26:04,359 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 2: Yeah. 523 00:26:05,440 --> 00:26:08,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, But Taylor's upset because he feels like Iowa and 524 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:10,879 Speaker 1: Iowa State turned down this job. Were you surprised by 525 00:26:10,880 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: the amount of people who turned down this job? 526 00:26:13,720 --> 00:26:17,960 Speaker 13: Let's find out how many of them actually trying, you 527 00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:19,920 Speaker 13: know what I mean? Like, a great way to make 528 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:23,560 Speaker 13: yourself look good is to pull your name out of contention. 529 00:26:23,240 --> 00:26:27,840 Speaker 7: For a job that you may not have. Like, actually, hand, 530 00:26:28,440 --> 00:26:29,640 Speaker 7: I'm just. 531 00:26:29,640 --> 00:26:32,600 Speaker 13: Saying this, and I know that maybe somebody really gets 532 00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:33,680 Speaker 13: charged up about working. 533 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: In the Midwest or anything else. 534 00:26:35,240 --> 00:26:37,720 Speaker 13: But if you say you got offered the North Carolina 535 00:26:37,800 --> 00:26:40,440 Speaker 13: job and you stayed at Iowa, that is the definition 536 00:26:40,560 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 13: of weird flex But okay, like that, that does not 537 00:26:45,200 --> 00:26:46,639 Speaker 13: impress me about you. 538 00:26:46,800 --> 00:26:47,520 Speaker 2: Tommy Lloyd. 539 00:26:47,920 --> 00:26:52,080 Speaker 13: Not leaving Arizona is in line with historical precedent. Yes, 540 00:26:52,440 --> 00:26:55,480 Speaker 13: Like Arizona is not a job that people typically leave 541 00:26:55,560 --> 00:27:00,080 Speaker 13: to go do something better that's not there. I think 542 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 13: Dan Walkin put it like this, If you got a 543 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,640 Speaker 13: top twenty job, you typically don't leave before a top 544 00:27:03,640 --> 00:27:04,040 Speaker 13: five job. 545 00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:06,399 Speaker 1: Correct, there was a time where Arizona was really good. 546 00:27:06,480 --> 00:27:09,000 Speaker 1: Loud Olson would not have left Arizona to go to North. 547 00:27:08,840 --> 00:27:11,159 Speaker 2: Carolina, right, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, you 548 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 2: would not have it. 549 00:27:11,840 --> 00:27:13,840 Speaker 13: And look, it's wild to look back and think Arizona 550 00:27:13,880 --> 00:27:15,639 Speaker 13: hasn't been to a Final four before this year. They 551 00:27:15,640 --> 00:27:17,680 Speaker 13: hadn't been one in twenty five years. That was kind 552 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:19,600 Speaker 13: of a wild thing. But like you got a job 553 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:21,320 Speaker 13: where you could make some hey, you go ahead and 554 00:27:21,359 --> 00:27:21,680 Speaker 13: do it. 555 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:23,160 Speaker 2: There's a pretty clear. 556 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:25,000 Speaker 7: Ceiling on how good you could be at Iowa. 557 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 13: I think one would say if you would not leave 558 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:29,760 Speaker 13: that to go to North Carolina, I don't think that 559 00:27:29,800 --> 00:27:31,440 Speaker 13: speaks to the job at North Carolina. 560 00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:33,800 Speaker 6: Bou MANI, When Michael Malone takes this job, do you 561 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:36,800 Speaker 6: think he's taking it with the thought that he's going 562 00:27:36,880 --> 00:27:39,480 Speaker 6: to be the North Carolina coach until he retires or 563 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:42,600 Speaker 6: is he taking this job thinking best case scenario. I'm 564 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:45,159 Speaker 6: back at the NBA in a couple of years, my 565 00:27:45,240 --> 00:27:48,800 Speaker 6: pick of my pick A team. 566 00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,680 Speaker 13: I have questions about what teams wanted to hire him, Yeah, 567 00:27:54,520 --> 00:27:57,840 Speaker 13: whether that was an option. I know he has daughters 568 00:27:57,840 --> 00:28:00,159 Speaker 13: who are at Carolina which I am sure made this 569 00:28:00,280 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 13: job much more attractive for him because he's probably spent 570 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:04,480 Speaker 13: a lot of this year. You probably spend more time 571 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:07,720 Speaker 13: around him daughters than he has like ever before in 572 00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:09,800 Speaker 13: his life, like when they get out of school. Maybe 573 00:28:09,800 --> 00:28:13,679 Speaker 13: it's a different sort of question. He's just like, everybody's 574 00:28:13,720 --> 00:28:16,560 Speaker 13: going to see how everybody feels about each other when 575 00:28:16,600 --> 00:28:20,639 Speaker 13: they do this job. I'd like if he only stays 576 00:28:20,680 --> 00:28:22,600 Speaker 13: five years, which is totally on the board. It may 577 00:28:22,600 --> 00:28:25,320 Speaker 13: be because everybody is tired of everybody after five years, 578 00:28:25,320 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 13: but you might win a championship in the course of 579 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:28,440 Speaker 13: those five years, you know what I mean. 580 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:31,640 Speaker 7: Like that's on the board. I don't I find it. 581 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,159 Speaker 13: Unlikely that he's just like, oh, I'm doing this to 582 00:28:34,280 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 13: parlay this into an NBA job. 583 00:28:36,280 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 2: That would be a weird. 584 00:28:37,480 --> 00:28:39,360 Speaker 13: Tactic if that's what he was going to do, because 585 00:28:39,360 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 13: I don't think he needed to go coach at North 586 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:42,560 Speaker 13: Carolina in order to get himself an NBA job. 587 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:44,680 Speaker 7: If an NBA job was there for him to get. 588 00:28:44,640 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 1: How about if you're one of his daughters, you don't 589 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:47,800 Speaker 1: want dad roaming around campus. 590 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:52,240 Speaker 13: I mean, geez, on one level, yes, you are correct, 591 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 13: I personally would not but let me tell you somewhere 592 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,560 Speaker 13: Michael Malone will not want to be very much, if 593 00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:01,440 Speaker 13: at all, which is roaming around on the campus as 594 00:29:01,520 --> 00:29:07,640 Speaker 13: the head coach of the basketball team. I can't imagine 595 00:29:07,680 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 13: anything more stressful than if Mike Malone just decides to 596 00:29:12,480 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 13: go to Lenore Hall to get some Chick fil A 597 00:29:15,040 --> 00:29:17,480 Speaker 13: and then go hang out in the pit before buying 598 00:29:17,520 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 13: souvenirs at the bookstore. 599 00:29:20,320 --> 00:29:21,960 Speaker 7: I don't think that's gonna happen. 600 00:29:22,080 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: Now, who wins the title first, Michael Malone or John Shire? 601 00:29:29,200 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 1: I mean, I don't really people are starting to look 602 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:32,760 Speaker 1: at shy are funny man? 603 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:33,160 Speaker 2: They are? 604 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:33,560 Speaker 7: They are? 605 00:29:33,720 --> 00:29:34,080 Speaker 10: They are. 606 00:29:34,120 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 7: I don't like to predict my own misery. 607 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:39,480 Speaker 13: Like if there's if there's a benevolent god, it's Michael 608 00:29:39,520 --> 00:29:42,600 Speaker 13: Malone and it's like four times before John Shire ever 609 00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:43,880 Speaker 13: gets one. 610 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:45,560 Speaker 7: Yea if Michael Malone. 611 00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:48,040 Speaker 13: What I would love about this is if somewhere in 612 00:29:48,160 --> 00:29:51,920 Speaker 13: this Michael Malone decides he doesn't like John Shire because 613 00:29:51,960 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 13: he is not the type of person to hide the 614 00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 13: fact that he doesn't like somebody like this. I do 615 00:29:56,880 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 13: think that it's worth noting this is the first time 616 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,440 Speaker 13: since already the Carolina's had a coach that has like 617 00:30:02,680 --> 00:30:08,000 Speaker 13: he was a bit confrontational. Roy wasn't really confrontational. Michael 618 00:30:08,040 --> 00:30:12,360 Speaker 13: Malone is can it's confrontational. I mean like I'd love 619 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,680 Speaker 13: to see him really lean in on the beef, like 620 00:30:14,720 --> 00:30:16,840 Speaker 13: I feel like in the NBA you don't really get 621 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:18,800 Speaker 13: to just actively dislike people. 622 00:30:18,560 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: Like you're allowed to do in college. 623 00:30:21,800 --> 00:30:24,440 Speaker 1: Taylor, by the way, is uh, he's seeing movies from 624 00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 1: my childhood.

You're winless? 793 00:37:28,800 --> 00:37:31,799 Speaker 6: Yeah, so roommate Ian has kind of been the star 794 00:37:31,920 --> 00:37:34,399 Speaker 6: of this team, or the the person that people want 795 00:37:34,440 --> 00:37:36,880 Speaker 6: to hear about the most. Yes, and just the reminder 796 00:37:37,080 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 6: he's Jewish. But he wore a Dominican Republic hat to 797 00:37:40,640 --> 00:37:41,239 Speaker 6: the first game. 798 00:37:41,680 --> 00:37:42,360 Speaker 2: How could I forget? 799 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:45,000 Speaker 6: It's very odd he showed up to the game yesterday, 800 00:37:45,600 --> 00:37:48,160 Speaker 6: no Dominican Republic hat. He had a Miami Open hat on. 801 00:37:48,239 --> 00:37:50,720 Speaker 6: And when I asked him, no DR hat, he said, 802 00:37:51,200 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 6: I have to earn it. 803 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:55,960 Speaker 4: I thought, you're gonna say he has to burn it, 804 00:37:56,080 --> 00:37:58,200 Speaker 4: because I would have burned that hat after that performance. 805 00:37:58,320 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: Wait, so Ian was the guy who he committed like 806 00:38:00,760 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: six errors in the first game in left field and 807 00:38:03,160 --> 00:38:04,799 Speaker 1: then we switched him to centerfield, and then the ball 808 00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 1: found him in centerfield. 809 00:38:06,080 --> 00:38:10,200 Speaker 6: Yesterday we moved him to first base and he looked 810 00:38:10,239 --> 00:38:13,200 Speaker 6: like a gold glover at first base. Really, so we 811 00:38:13,560 --> 00:38:16,399 Speaker 6: shuffled around some positions. Now we still lost the game. 812 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,920 Speaker 6: We lost by five and five innings. We didn't get 813 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:22,200 Speaker 6: run rulled. We were up one through three innings. Wow, 814 00:38:22,480 --> 00:38:25,080 Speaker 6: we lost the games due in the fourth inning. A 815 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,879 Speaker 6: week part of our lineup came up. They went one, two, three, 816 00:38:28,000 --> 00:38:31,439 Speaker 6: They struck out the side, They struck out slow, pitched 817 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:31,839 Speaker 6: off all. 818 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 2: The first time. That's never happened. 819 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 4: I mean, I just want to add I was none 820 00:38:37,000 --> 00:38:39,040 Speaker 4: of those three people who's struck out. 821 00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 2: Well, hold on, we'll get to you. How did it 822 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,840 Speaker 2: is he play? Taylor? Tell us?
